[qgis-qwc2] Transitioning from QWC1 to QWC2

[Adriano Kaulich]

Hi all,

I was exited to learn at FOSSGIS 2017 that QWC2 was already at beta and 
wanted to try it out. I didn't realize though, that the architecture is 
very different to that of the original QWC. Once I got the demo app 
running (which was comfortably easy to do), I tried to investigate how 
the new QWC works.

In the original QWC, *.qgs-files could be saved in the project folder, 
where the demo projects where located as well. With QWC2 though, I have 
a hard time finding the location of the demo projects, or understanding 
how I would implement my own. I have several QWC-Projects with the 
original Version that I wanted to move to the new QWC2. What I took away 
from the German documentation is, that projects are now called themes. 
But I didn't understand how to edit a theme with QGIS Desktop, nor was 
it made clear where the demo themes are stored as QGIS-Project files. Is 
there a tutorial out there that eases the transition from QWC1 to QWC2?

With best regards,
Adriano
